Good morning all,
Family Food Markets –
I am so excited to share that there will be Family Food Markets provided by Flourish Foods during the summer time.
Flourish is excited to invite families to participate in our weekly food markets! Flourish will arrive at set locations (see attached poster) with fresh food offerings for families to take home and enjoy. These will be locally gleaned foods from our friends at the Mustard Seed; think carrots, lettuce, potatoes, berries, bread and more!
Families will be invited to try out new recipes at home using the provided foods to help Flourish build recipes and lesson plans for the following school year. Feedback gathered from families who choose to participate will be crucial to building connections gardens and food systems in school. We really hope to see you there!
Please see attached poster for dates and times.
We are looking forward to a terrific last day here at Savory. Dismissal is at our regular 2:38 pm time.
Happy Summer everyone!
Renee, Principal

Good afternoon everyone,
What a fantastic day today at Esquimalt Lagoon! Thank you to the many families who joined today. And thank you to the Savory staff for a terrific day!
Tomorrow is our Grade 5 Celebration Ceremony. Guests are welcome to arrive and enter the gym for 10:30 am. We will then call classes down and have the ceremony begin at 10:45 am. We are looking forward to this opportunity to celebrate this amazing group of kiddos!
Report Cards are ready in MyEd for Wednesday noon.
Thursday is the last day of classes so please send bags home with kiddos tomorrow and Wednesday to pack up their belongings.
Pacific FC visited last week and have the following offer to families….
A free $5 ticket with every $20 ticket purchased (essentially an additional ticket 75% off). It’s a great option for families and kids that want to end our match on June 27th at 7:00 pm. Here is the link…

When: Beach Day is Monday, June 23th
Where: As a school event/field trip, we will be leaving the school at 9:00ish to travel to the Esquimalt Lagoon for the day. We will be returning to school at approximately 2:20 pm as busses will be picking us up at 2:00 pm to return to Savory.
What: We will be spending the day exploring the beach; playing on the beach; enjoying time together. We will not be swimming. Children are allowed at the water’s edge up to their knees. We have 3 lifeguards helping to ensure that all are safe at the shoreline.
Supervision: Students will be supervised by their classroom teacher as well as our Educational Assistant staff, Student Engagement Facilitator, other staff and school administration.
Note: Parents are welcome to join us for the day but will need to use your own transportation. Please sign the permission form below and indicate if you are planning to join us and can help supervise the students. Thank you for your help!
Cost: no cost – Thank you to our terrific PAC for funding the Lifeguards and the busses.
In order for our beach day to be safe and fun we ask that the following requests be followed and respected:
Clothing
Children will need to be dressed in preparation for both hot and cool June weather. We recommend:
- a change of clothing. (sweats and sweatshirts work well as jeans become very heavy to carry and wear if damp or wet)
- a jacket or sweater
- a towel for drying feet
- shoes that will be good for walking and shoes suitable for sand and wading
- a pack to carry their own belongings – the children will be responsible for all their items
Sun Protection
Children are asked to have both a hat and sunscreen lotion. Please write your child’s name on each item.
Food
Students need to provide their own lunch. Children get very hungry when out of doors for long periods of time so we ask that you pack extra snacks/drinks for your child… Please pack extra WATER for your child(ren).
Swimming and Wading
There are lifeguards on duty but given that we are on the seaside with tide and waves to contend with, children will not be allowed to swim. Children will be able to wade up to their knees and only where and when it is safe. We will indicate boundaries using pylons and expect students to stay within our school boundaries.
Sand Toys/Equipment
Children are welcome to bring shovels, buckets, and containers for making castles, etc. Please write your child’s name on any beach toys. Children will need to be able to carry this equipment in their pack and be responsible for bringing it to, and from, the beach and the bus.
Families on the beach
Beach day is one of our favourite days as a school. We know families like to come as well. Unfortunately, we don’t have the manpower and resources to look after children who aren’t students- we are only responsible for the safety and security of our students. We ask that parents are extra vigilant of younger children who are not yet part of our school. We wouldn’t want an older student to knock into a toddler while playing on the beach. Should you choose to pick-up your child from the beach, please check them out with teacher.
Cancellation
We will need to cancel the trip if the weather is horrible. Unfortunately, due to bussing schedules etc. in the event that the trip is cancelled, we will not be able to schedule another day. We will send out an email early in the morning in the case of cancellation.
Good afternoon,
Please see attached information.

Dear Families/Caregivers attending the Elementary Track Meet at Royal Bay Secondary,
RBSS is excited to welcome back the Elementary Track and Field Event on Thursday, June 5th.
These events are a great way to celebrate sports. This event draws considerable public attendance and has a massive impact on the operation of Royal Bay Secondary School. The school has a population of roughly 1800 students and staff – so the parking lots around the school are busy.
Here are a few reminders for your day at the Elementary Track Meet:
There is no parking at Royal Bay Secondary School. See Parking information below.
Families must not use the bus loop or the drop-off lane at RBSS. Drop-off is done at the parking lot off-site. See below.
Students and families are responsible for all of their own garbage. Please put garbage in the garbage bag or take it home.
There is no access to Royal Bay Secondary School.
Bathrooms are outside at the Field House, and not in the school. These will be clearly labelled.
There will be a concession provided by the Royal Bay Leadership Class
Parking Information
Please make sure to only park in the designate parking area. This includes drop off and pick up as we cannot accommodate the traffic in the lanes/loops in front of the school.
To access the parking lot:
Turn south off of Latoria Road onto Quarry Road
Take your first right onto Tradewinds Avenue
The parking lot will be on your left
Please see the attached map for a visual location of the parking lot with walking directions to the track at RBSS.
Thank-you for your support and we look forward to a great day at the Elementary Track Meet. See attached map below.
Enjoy the meet!
